Highlight of a FOST Christmas

A full house that gathered on the 14th December for the Christmas Breakfast organised annually by FOST had special guests attending.

Yes! Father Christmas found time in his busy schedule to call in at Shanklin Theatre to meet up with the Volunteers, Staff and Directors who were enjoying a special two course breakfast.

Escorting and helping Santa were two ‘elves’ well known to many of the Friends. They distributed chocolate presents and the lucky ticket number was drawn.

The winner of a ‘Prosecco and Chocolate Box’ donated by Bookers was our previous FOST Secretary, Gwyn Dawson.

In addition to a full Isle of Wight cooked breakfast, a starter of either Smoked Salmon or Grapefruit was enjoyed, whilst the Theatre received over a £100 profit from the morning’s festivities.

The photos show Father Christmas in the midst of the breakfast with Snowy (toy puppy), the Catering team including elves, Father Christmas with Brian from the Bar and Dorothy inspecting Santa’s beard -

Thank you to our catering team for laying on this wonderful breakfast, and to everyone that came along to support the theatre.

Firemen at Shanklin Institute before it was converted to the Town Hall in 1913

Shanklin firemen practising with their 'new escape ladder', I'd estimate pre-WW1.

The art of the fireman's carry down a ladder remained a pass or fail element of the recruits course.

I attended in 1996 but was made subject to a mountain of health and safety measures when used in training and has since been superseded by an alternative method called face-to-face.

The responsibility of carrying another person in this manner is tremendous but doesn't even come close to the terror felt by the casualty!

Being the smallest bloke on my course I was a popular choice as the stricken man for everybody else to carry, not a day in my life I'd wish to repeat. Image and text courtesy of Damon Corr.

A Magnificent donation towards our ‘Name a Seat’ Initiative

Back in November last year, our managing director Vic Farrow was contacted by local business man Alan Morgan. Alan who is a keen supporter of the theatre said, he would like to contribute towards the theatre’s restoration and maintenance programme by way of a seat dedication. Vic was obviously over the moon to receive such great news.

Unbeknown to Vic at that time was that Alan actually wanted to name not one, but ten seats at the theatre, all in the names of his family. Fantastic!

The plaques were ordered and affixed to centre row G seats in the balcony area of the theatre; the row of named seats in the Morgan name looks pretty impressive! We would like to personally thank Alan for his generosity and for naming ten seats at Shanklin Theatre. Thank you!

Bucket Fund Update

Mid February 2018 Grand Total: £125,278!

During the run-up to Christmas we had a variety of shows. The Russian State Ballet and Opera House’s ‘Swan Lake’ enthralled the audience, who raised more than £214. Comedy lovers had tons of laughs, courtesy of Jimeoin, Rich Hall and Ed Byrne, raising £426.

As a community theatre, we are the chosen venue for the Christmas productions of our local groups: Island band Lucid filled the theatre, whose loyal fans contributed £103 to the Bucket Fund.

The Spotlight IW ‘kids’ show’, both shows from Footsteps, the matinee and evening performances of ‘Beauty and the Beast’ by Theatre Train and December’s enchanting production of ‘The Snow Queen’ by learning disabilities group First Act 2011 collectively brought in £623. Fantastic! This highlights the importance of keeping our theatre open and thriving for everyone to enjoy.

The 13-show run of Spotlight IW Ltd’s pantomime ‘Dick Whittington and his Cat’ was a huge success again and raised £2244.

February opened with two tribute acts: ‘The Lionel Richie Song Book’ produced £109, and ‘Faith - The George Michael Legacy’ - collected £130.

Comedy acts Jimmy Carr and Milton Jones raised between them £389. With the colourful range of acts to look forward to this spring, we should be raising plenty of money for the Bucket Fund!

Thank you very much! Alana Bird.
